Transcription

1 ICD-9-CM coding for patients with Traumatic Brain Injury* The diagnostic code for sequelae of traumatic brain injury is: Late effect of intracranial injury without mention of skull fracture (Late effect of injury classifiable to ) The code for the symptom, problem, or diagnosis that is the late effect and that prompted the visit or that is being managed by the service should be listed first, followed by the The code for the acute phase of the injury (e.g ) that led to the late effect is not used with the code for the late effect. indicates intervening codes have been left out of this list. ORGANIC PSYCHOTIC CONDITIONS ( ) Includes: psychotic organic brain syndrome Excludes: nonpsychotic syndromes of organic etiology ( ) psychoses classifiable to and without impairment of orientation, comprehension, calculation, learning capacity, and judgement, but associated with physical disease, injury, or condition affecting the brain 293 Transient mental disorders due to conditions classified elsewhere Includes: transient organic mental disorders not associated with alcohol or drugs Code first the associated physical or neurological condition Excludes: confusional state or delirium superimposed on senile dementia (290.3) dementia due to: alcohol ( ) arteriosclerosis ( ) drugs (292.82) senility (290.0) Delirium due to conditions classified elsewhere Acute: confusional state infective psychosis organic reaction posttraumatic organic psychosis psycho-organic syndrome Acute psychosis associated with endocrine, metabolic, or cerebrovascular disorder Epileptic: confusional state twilight state 294 Persistent mental disorders due to conditions classified elsewhere Includes: organic psychotic brain syndromes (chronic), not elsewhere classified Amnestic disorder in conditions classified elsewhere Korsakoff's psychosis or syndrome (nonalcoholic) Code first underlying condition Excludes: alcoholic: amnestic syndrome (291.1) Korsakoff's psychosis (291.1) Unspecified persistent mental disorders due to conditions classified elsewhere Cognitive disorder NOS Organic psychosis (chronic)

The "late effects" include those specified as such, or as sequelae, which may occur at any time after the acute injury. 907 Late effects of injuries to the nervous system Late effect of intracranial injury without mention of skull fracture Late effect of injury classifiable to CERTAIN TRAUMATIC COMPLICATIONS AND UNSPECIFIED INJURIES ( )
